Polygraph Test
The polygraph test is a psychophysiological analysis method that measures involuntary bodily responses to specific questions in order to determine the truthfulness of an individual’s answers.
A polygraph is a specialized device used to simultaneously record and analyse several physiological parameters, such as:
- blood pressure;
- chest and abdominal respiration;
- electrodermal activity (skin conductance);
- neuromuscular micro-movements.
These data are interpreted by a trained specialist. Based on changes in physiological parameters, conclusions can be drawn about the sincerity or insicerity of the person being tested.
The results are compiled into a technical-scientific report, providing an objective evaluation of the individual’s responses.
Our clinic uses the LX 5000 polygraph, manufactured by Lafayette (USA) – the same model used by national security institutions.
How Does the Polygraph Test Work?
The process includes several key phases, each essential to ensuring result accuracy:
1. Pre-Test Phase
- Introduction to the client and context of the test
- Explanation of how the polygraph works
- Formulation of test questions
- Signing of the test protocol
2. In-Test Phase (Actual Test)
- Conducted in a specialized lab, with only the specialist and the client
- If requested, the test may be recorded only with the client’s written consent
3. Post-Test Phase
- Preliminary communication of the results
4. Data Analysis and Interpretation
- Detailed review of polygraph charts by the specialist to assess the truthfulness of the responses
5. Preparation of the Technical-Scientific Report
- Creation of an official report containing the test conclusions
